MESSAGE FROM MIKKO TALVITIE,
PRESIDENT OF THE PROVISIONAL COUNCIL
2003 will prove in the coming years to have been a
turning point in the Organisation’s history, for it
was chiefly a year of preparation for great changes
at EUROCONTROL.
Much work was carried out on the institutional
front, culminating at the end of the year with the
signing of a Memorandum of Cooperation between
EUROCONTROL and the European Commission.
This will provide a framework for cooperation and
ensure synergies between the two bodies. This step
coincided with the conclusion of the conciliation
process on the Single European Sky Regulations,
with EU States and the European Parliament reaching
an agreement.
Based on its extensive expertise in air traffic management,
the EUROCONTROL Agency has already started
to support the implementation of the far-reaching
Single European Sky Regulations following their
adoption at the beginning of 2004. The Regulatory
Committee will contribute actively to the implementation
of these Regulations by supporting the development
of relevant implementing rules. To this end,
in 2003 the Committee put in place EUROCONTROL
regulatory structures and working methods together
with a regulatory work programme.
Although war in Iraq and the SARS epidemic made
for severe economic constraints,which hurt airlines
and air navigation service providers badly, it was
gratifying to see traffic levels recovering and substantial
savings being made through the sharp
reduction in delays.While record numbers of flights
were reported in the summer, delays fell by 30%.
This is a most encouraging indication that efforts to
improve capacity are paying off.
With delays brought down to record levels in 2003,
increased efforts were made to deliver a safe and costefficient
European air traffic management system.
The improvement of Europe’s safety record remained
a high priority on the Provisional Council’s agenda.
Europe’s safety results in 2003 were better than ever.
However, recent accidents prove that even more
needs to be done in this area. In 2003 the Provisional
Council approved the Strategic Safety Action Plan
proposed by the High-Level European Action Group
for ATM Safety (AGAS). This plan provides a solid
structure for change and calls for immediate action
across Europe.
At the same time, EUROCONTROL, in close coordination
with its stakeholders, demonstrated determination
to identify opportunities to increase economic
efficiency in air traffic management without
compromising safety, capacity or service levels.
While safety remains EUROCONTROL’s key driver,
cost efficiency is a crucial consideration for the
Organisation.
In this respect, the Performance Review
Commission and the Safety Regulation
Commission continued to play a critical role, producing
high-quality work geared to improving the
performance and safety of European ATM.

Solid advances were also made in civil and military
cooperation in air navigation with the conclusion
of a Memorandum of Cooperation with NATO. The
two organisations have clearly demonstrated in the
past that they can join forces to advance their
respective aims.This Memorandum, signed in 2003,
reinforces existing cooperation to the advantage of
the entire European air traffic management system.
The European ATM environment is expected to
evolve considerably over the coming 15 - 20 years.
